On the ground; Carlisle, Oct. 1887. (Dr. Carlyle.) 

 Not closely allied to any known species ; distinguished at 

 once by the densely fasciculate habit and the shining snow- 

 white pileus and stem. .Resembling in size and crowded 

 mode of growth, Galera conferta, but distinguished by the 

 purple gills and spores, and the pure white pileus at all 



HYPHOLOMA. Fries, (figs. 9, 10, 14, 16, p. 351.)
